Wiremu flees the restrictions of the Du Roses and strikes out on his own. He's formulated a plan to get what he wants and believes nothing can stand in his way.
But the small New Zealand town he arrives at has secrets buried in the soil. One man is intent on digging them up and blackmailing the good people around him. Wiremu's plan comes under threat. He's broke, injured, and friendless. He's been there less than a week, but already someone wants him dead.
Wiremu's plan requires success and solvency. He thinks that's how he can win the one thing Logan Du Rose will kill to protect.
His daughter.
A local man is found dead and something belonging to Wiremu is discovered at the crime scene. And the secrets and lies just keep coming. Who can he trust in this town filled with history and grudges?
And will he survive long enough to enact his grand plan?
